Advanced vehicle identification technologies can enhance national security and the security of transportation facilities, workers, and customers by preventing unauthorized vehicles from entering a transportation facility, border crossing, or parking area. Manual checks are time-consuming–-license plates must be checked against authorized plates, and the identities of workers and travelers confirmed. Advanced vehicle identification technologies allow faster access for authorized vehicles, reduce the possibility of fraud and error, and permit security personnel to spend more time in evaluating unknown vehicles and persons. This paper discusses several advanced vehicle identification technologies–- automated license plate recognition, vehicle-based identification, and electronic vehicle identification systems–-and their applicability in localized access control and in national security situations. The technologies’ features, costs, accuracy, and feasibility are discussed, and recommendations for further research are provided.
